Rita Ora teamed up with Vida Glow founder, Anna Lahey, to launch their own haircare brand in 2024, which has gone from strength to strength.
The collection has sold out on numerous occasions due to popular demand, and I think I have a part to play in this because I am whole-heartedly obsessed with the G1 Overnight Peptide Boosting Serum to stimulate healthy hair growth.
But there is a new hair launch on the block we think could give the G1 Serum a run for its money as our cult haircare essential – introducing the G5 3-in-1 Dry Shampoo.
Typebea has just launched its G5 3-in-1 Dry Shampoo, which bridges the gap between numerous haircare products. It functions as a dry shampoo, hair growth, scalp exfoliator, hair scent, and everything in between.
Formulated with scalp-loving ingredients, the G5 Dry Shampoo is a fine mist that soaks up excess oil, while BaicapilTM and amino acids target hair growth from the root, and lactic acid gently exfoliates the scalp and keeps the hair environment clean. It also contains TYPEBEA's signature citrus and bergamot scent for a fresh finish. The ultra fine mist is lightweight on the scalp, doesn't clog the hair follicles, and is super easy to use.It is free from silicone, sulphate and parabens. BUY NOW FOR £26
The G5 Dry Shampoo has been described as an extension of TYPEBEA's Growth collection, as it is not only a dry shampoo, but has been designed to aid hair growth, reduce hair loss by 60% and exfoliate the scalp.
Now we know there is some stigma around how good dry shampoo is for the scalp. While some dry shampoos can clog the hair follicles and inhibit hair growth, others can leave the hair with a sheet of white mist, or with a powdery texture. But that is not the case for TYPEBEA's creation.
Staying true to the brand, TYPEBEA has infused this dry shampoo with scalp-loving ingredients that are hydrating, exfoliating rather than clogging, and effective in reducing the oil-soaked locks.
TYPEBEA has created a Dry Shampoo that soaks up any excess oil that leaves the hair looking greasy, thanks to the inclusion of ultra-fine natural starches, but it has also been formulated with lactic acid that gently exfoliates the scalp to remove any build up of dead skin, sebum and product that can inhibit hair growth.
The key ingredient is TYPEBEA's hero active, BaicapilTM, which has been clinically proven to boost hair growth at the root – a feature that is unlike any other dry shampoo we have ever tried (and we have tried a lot!) It also functions to maintain a healthy environment on the scalp for hair to grow.
But why stop there? TYPEBEA's G5 also adds volume to the root, which is ideal for those who don't like a flat hairstyle.
Alongside the appearance of dry, clean and voluminous locks, this Dry Shampoo also reduces the appearance of frizz and flyaways, without leaving any white case.
Some Dry Shampoo's have a musky scent, but the power duo have infused this new drop with the brand's signature scent, which boasts notes of bergamot, wood, and citrus scents so your hair smells fresh and fragrant (in the best way) with every sassy hair flick. More Trending
The multi-functional product emits an uber-fine mist, which is light on the hair and scalp, nor does it disrupt the existing style. Like most dry shampoos it is advised to shake well before use, spray onto the roots from 15cm away, then brush through. Simple right?
It is rare for a new product to be on offer, but TYPEBEA really is breaking from tradition in more ways than one, as there is an exclusive offer to save you more on select hair products, but only for Metro readers (aren't you lucky?)
From now until 24th June, Metro readers can get 20% off two products, and we strongly recommend the G5 Dry Shampoo and the G1 Overnight Serum. The one-time offer is available to all customers, though it cannot be used alongside any other discounts, and it has to be a minimum purchase of £26. To claim the discount all you have to do is enter the discount code 'METRO20' at the checkout. Don't say we don't spoil you!

What I Own: We pay £450 per month for our £409,950 mortgage-free Watford flat
Welcome back to What I Own – Metro's property series where we speak to homeowners about getting on the ladder. Roy and Gil Hamilton, both 84, were living in a three-bed flat when, looking to downsize, they began exploring the possibility of living in a retirement village. They eventually settled on a two-bedroom apartment in Watford, down the road from their previous home. They paid £409,950, leaving them mortgage-free. Since the couple completed in 2022, they've found a community, with Gil taking up Pilates and cheerleading, while Roy enjoys watercolour painting. They initially paid a £500 reservation fee, and now their monthly costs total just £450, including all bills and service charges. Here's what Roy had to say about their property journey… You can access completely fee-free mortgage advice with London & Country (L&C) Mortgages, a partner of Metro. Customers benefit from: – Award winning service from the UK's leading mortgage broker – Expert advisors on hand 7 days a week – Access to 1000s of mortgage deals from across the market Unlike many mortgage brokers, L&C won't charge you a fee for their advice. Find out how much you could borrow online Mortgage service provided by London & Country Mortgages (L&C), which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (registered number: 143002). The FCA does not regulate most Buy to Let mortgages. Your home or property may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage. My wife, Gil and I, are both 84 years old and in September, we'll have been married for 60 years. Gil is French and was working as a translator when we met. I was an engineer before moving into selling high-value computers. We both have separate hobbies, and enjoy socialising too. Our reservation fee was £500, and we bought our property at Mayfield Watford Retirement Village outright two and a half years ago, so we don't have a mortgage. The service charge, including management fee and services, heating, electricity and water, is roughly £450 a month. Our first ever property cost £295,000 when we bought it after we got married, in 1964. It was a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Up Holland, which is a village in Skelmersdale, West Lancashire. I can't quite remember how much the deposit was all those years ago, but we saved up £50 a month until we were able to buy. We've lived in six properties in different parts of the country since then, most recently the two-bedroom apartment in Watford. The proceeds from the sale of the flat were enough to buy our new home outright. We love the area as our previous property was nearby, so we've known it for years. We've got lots of family here, which is one of our favourite things about it. There's a thriving community at Mayfield. There are shops, a riverside park, as well as leisure facilities, such as a pool, sauna, gym, beauty treatment rooms and a café. We completed on September 30 2022, and the apartment cost £409,950. We lived in a flat in Watford with three double bedrooms and two bathrooms. Once we saw what Mayfield had to offer, we were particularly sold on the social aspect. There are many clubs and opportunities to socialise with people. My wife is part of the Mayfield Belles, the village's cheerleaders, who perform at our big events. We received a leaflet in the post and decided to visit. At the time we had no idea what a retirement village offered, but we haven't looked back since. We didn't bring any furniture with us, because it was all too big for our new, smaller, space at Mayfield. All of our furniture was bought to fit the available space, so we don't feel cramped. We both had the opportunity to pick what kind of wallpaper and paint we wanted, which was mainly chosen to go well with our new furniture. We're in the process of redecorating. Our kitchen units are grey, so we've repainted the walls in a deep reddish maroon to contrast. We've also added wallpaper in the lounge at the moment, which is patterned grey and silver. The lounge. It feels like the heart of the home to us. It's just right. Yes. We'd actually already downsized to our previous three-bed flat, as the home we lived in before that was becoming too hard to maintain. Our Mayfield apartment being smaller means it's easy to keep clean. More Trending Downsizing is one of the best decisions we've ever made. It's about reassessing where you are in life, and doing what's best for you, which means changing your attitude – and your furniture! There have been no problems with the property and Gil and I are very happy with our decision to move here. Moving to Mayfield is the best thing we ever did. It was a change of lifestyle, and for a better one. View More » But although buying a home is exciting, it can be a very stressful time.

Lidl is selling a Ninja air fryer dupe in its Middle Aisle that is £80 cheaper
Scroll down to see more middle aisle bargains BARGAIN BUY Lidl is selling a Ninja air fryer dupe in its Middle Aisle that is £80 cheaper LIDL is selling a Ninja air fryer dupe in its middle aisle that is a whopping £80 cheaper this summer. Shoppers will be racing to the bargain supermarket for this kitchen essential as it hits the shelves next week. 2 The Silvercrest Kitchen Air Fryer comes with a grill and smoker 2 It's a whopping £80 cheaper than the Ninja version The Silvercrest Kitchen Air Fryer which comes with a grill and smoker can be yours for just £99.99 from July 6. That's a whopping £80 cheaper than the Ninja version making it a bargain if you're on the look out for an air fryer on a budget. The Lidl version works as a normal air fryer with the lid closed and has a 3.8 litre capacity which can fit in 1kg of chips. What's better is that it can fry your chips without the use of any additional oil or fat. You can activate the smoker separately when the lid is closed too but when opened you can operate the grill function. And if that sounds complicated to navigate, the device comes with a touch-screen display for simple operation. The air fryer comes with seven different programs for smoking, grilling, air-frying, roasting, baking, dehydrating and reheating. It's easy to clean up too as the grill plate, frying basket, plancha and drip tray are all suitable for the dishwasher. With a high-quality non-stick coating, the fryer also is highly scratch proof and has excellent abrasion and stain resistance. You can whack the temperature up to a blazing 240 degrees as well and it works from 40 degrees upwards. And if you're planning to cook something throughout the day, the timer can be set from one minute up to 12 hours. The bargain buy comes with an instruction manual and 10 recipes included and has a three-year warranty. While the Ninja Foodi Mini 6-in-1 Multi Cooker is £80 more, it only has six cooking settings and doesn't include a smoker or a grill. But the appliance does come with a bigger capacity of 4.7 litres and has seen good reviews online. One customer gave the product a five-star rating and said: "Excellent multi cooker, easy to use, cooks great in all settings. "Really pleased with it." But at £179.99 it may prove too much of an expense for some so the Lidl version provides a great alternative. The bargain retailer are selling a range of other appliances in July too. Available on the same day is the Grillmeister BBQ Pizza Oven for just £29.99. It's great for crispy pizzas or even fresh baguettes and could be the perfect addition for a garden bash this summer. And if you want to go one step further, Lidl will be selling their Grillmeister 6 Burner Gas Barbecue for £129.

What benefit cuts has Sir Keir Starmer backtracked on?
Sir Keir Starmer will mark his first year in government in eight days. But one of the Prime Minister's largest – and most controversial – policy plans is in tatters. Sir Keir hoped to save money and incentivise work by passing a bill making deep cuts to welfare, such as restricting who can access Personal Independence Payments (Pip). Disability and anti-poverty campaigners told Metro the plans would push more sick and disabled people into poverty, while 120 rebel Labour MPs have refused to vote for it. Yet the PM has been forced to do a humiliating U-turn after meeting with key rebels last night. The Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment Bill would tighten who can receive Pip, which is designed to support disabled people, whether or not they are in work. Pip is a two-part benefit – a sickness-related daily living component of at least £73.90 a week and a mobility component of at least £29.20. The former helps people who struggle to do tasks like cooking meals, using the toilet or washing and bathing. The Government wanted to limit who can access the daily living payment by increasing the eligibility requirements from November 26. Universal Credit, a bundle of various benefits, would also have been restricted under the plans. Claimants who have limited capacity to work because of a disability or long-term condition can get an extra top-up worth £423.27. The proposals would have restricted eligibility to those aged 22 and over. All in all, the measures would have seen 1,200,000 disabled people lose up to £6,300 by 2030. Work and Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall told rebel MPs that now, Pip and UC claimants will continue receiving what they currently get. Instead, only future claimants will face the higher eligibility requirements. A review into the welfare system involving disabled groups and a package of employment support measures has also been promised, according to The Guardian. A Downing Street spokesperson said: 'We have listened to MPs who support the principle of reform but are worried about the pace of change for those already supported by the system. 'This package will preserve the social security system for those who need it by putting it on a sustainable footing, provide dignity for those unable to work, supports those who can and reduce anxiety for those currently in the system. 'Our reforms are underpinned by Labour values and our determination to deliver the change the country voted for last year.' The rebels, for one, are relieved. One told The Guardian: 'They've offered massive concessions, which should be enough to get the bill over the line at second reading. Another added: 'We always wanted to protect the most vulnerable, not to destroy the bill or cause the government trouble. We always hoped there would be an off-ramp, and that's what we have now.' The selling point of the bill was simple – save £5billion. But the turnaround means that about £3billion will be saved instead, which economists warn won't give Chancellor Rachel Reeves much wiggle room in her Autumn statement. Tax rises or cuts elsewhere, they said, might be needed to plug the gap. Campaigners, however, had mixed feelings about the news. Ayla Ozmen, director of policy and campaigns at anti-poverty charity Z2K told Metro: 'It's right that the government has protected current PIP claimants, but we still have very serious concerns about the plans. 'The risk of trying work for current claimants could become even greater, as if it doesn't work out, people may risk being pushed into deep poverty with no way back. And for future claimants, the system will offer even less protection from poverty.' 'Instead of focusing on fending off a rebellion, the government must do what is right for disabled people and go back to the drawing board.' Charlotte Gill, the head of campaigns and public affairs at the Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Society, however, was ALSO unimpressed. She said: 'Instead of meaningful action, all they're doing is kicking the can down the road and delaying an inevitable disaster. 'Down the line, these cuts will still push more people into poverty and worsen people's health. We urge MPs not to be swayed by these last-ditch attempts to force through a harmful bill with supposed concessions. 'The only way to avoid a catastrophe today and in the future is to stop the cuts altogether by halting the bill in its tracks.'
